The annual meeting of the Can- adian National silver llbx Bread- ers' Association was held in the Fort Cumberland Hotel, Amherst. on Thursday, June 8th. Directors were present from Ontario, Que- bec and the Maritirrres. The tin- anciel statement for all operations exclusive of those under the mar- keting act, showed revenue of tll,3l5.'l1 and total expenses of 89,615.35, leaving a surplus of 31,700.36. Current assets of cash and investments totalled 8137.406. 34, and real estate and other fix- ed assets 33,268.66, making a grand total after some adjust- ments, of &'.ll8,54l.80. This state- ment and the president's state- ment. were adopted unanimously.

Dr. W. 2:. Russell reported for the committee on dlstempc and comm-unicable diseases and made recornrnendatioris which were adopted. J. A. steels of the Live Stock Records bmrich. pointed out come changes that should be made in the live stock pedigree act. These were approved. A discussion took place with reference to cut- ting down the directorate. It was pointed out, however. that this would not be a fitting time to do so as it would show a great deal 01 discouragement and would like- ly be resented by provinces whose membership had fallen off van” considerably. Most of those pre- sent felt that there was a hopeful side for the lndsistry in the not too distant future and if so we would want every province represented as before.

Grants to live fox shows are to be continued on the same basis and a grant of sl5,o00 was voted for advertising and fox fur pro- motion. This amount while avail- able would not all be used unless there appcared to be a real chance of its helping the promotion of the sale of silver foxes. Due to the dis- continuance of the magazine Cah- adlan Fox and Fur, an offer from the Fur Trade Joumai of Canada to act as the official organ of the Association was accepted. Many expressed regret that the for-rnerl magazine -was unable to continue as relations between the publisher and the Association irad always "been very harmonious.

The question of making avail- able to ranchers a system of scur- ing and inspection of foxes at a mlnimu.m fee of 315 for 15 foxes with smaller nmnunts for ii larger number of foxes inspected. was dlscused very freely. The promo- ters argued that it would be help- ful to ranchers to have inspectors visit them and carefully examine their herds, or as many of them as they wished to have examined, and give them a report as to the quality. Many felt that the fox farmer who is now remaining in the business is quite capable of judging his own foxes-or should be-and that the sending or! in-I spectors to perhaps very widely scattered parts of the Dominion would involve a. tremendous ex- pense iind be of very little practic- al value. it was finally decided to appoint a committee to look into the mutter and to report at the next annual meeting.

Live fox shows had been held at Amherst Winter Fair, and by the Prince Edward Island Fur Breed- ers' Association in Charlottetown, both shows being open to Can- adian rcgistered foxes and each show had an exhibit of approxi- mately 325 foxes. Four fox pelts of select quality and of standard Silver. White Marked Silver. Pia- tinum and Pearl Platinum types were selected and forwarded as an exhibit to the Canadian Court of the Imperial Institute. London. England. Suitable acknowledgment was received and it was stated that Canada through the medium of the exhibits and fox pelts sup-- plied by this Association to the fair section of the exhibit would mnke it an outstanding one.

Reference was made and regret expressed re the passing of Dr, R. H. Macboiiriald of Saskatoon. Siisk.. who was a very prominent member of the Association and an outstanding breeder of silver foxes. He represented the province of

Saskatchewan on the board of directors from June. 1943. con- tlnuously until the time of his

rlerith.

Mr. George Callbeck gave a re- port of his attendance at the meet- ing of the Canadian Council of Fur Associations, an organization formed with a view of co-ardirrat- ing all branches of the fur in- dustry. Assistance to it had been given by the Canadian National

Association and one of its activi- ties which was being pressed at present was the removal of the 10 per cent excise tax.

General regret was expressed that Pruident Arthur M. Doyle of Winnipeg, could not attend be- cause of illness. It was hoped that health and able to attend future he would soon be restored to

cetings.

The report of the marketing de- partment which is under the direct control of George A. callbcck.

showed that its service to fur farmers was maintained during the 1946-1949 season and every

effort made to provide and ad- minister theseser-vices sufficient- ly as possible under the difficult conditions prevailing in the fur trade particularly in regard to fox pelts. Receipts for the season totalled 30,933 pelts received from 860 strippers. The quality of the pelts received was relatively good. Mink pelt receipts were con- siderably in excess of the previous season and because of the facili- ties the marketing department now has it is in a position to give efficient service to all mink farin- ers in the marketing of their pelts.

The elections of officers for 1950-1951 resulted as follows: President, Gordon MacMi1lan, Cornwall, vice President, Dr. W. E. Russell Kit ” r. Ont... Secre-

International Plant lluarantine Regulations conference

OTTAWA, June 15 .. A nigh'y important and progressive step in controlling or eradicating devast- ating plant pests and diseases was taken by representatives of 31 countries attending the Intemri- tional Plant Quarantine Regula- tions Conference held recently at The Hague, when action was taken to establish a standard certificate of health form for use in interm- tronal trade, and acceptable to all countries participating.

"Not only would this step have 9 beneficlal effect in the control of disease". said W. N. Keenan, Chief, Division of Plant Protection, can- ada Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, just returned from the Conference. "it would also greatly facilitate international trade in Plant propagating material, and the movement of plant products for food purposes".

M15 Keenan. who headed the Canadian delegatlori of scientists to The Hague Conference. said that the forms in use in Canada and the United States had been used as 2; Buide in preparing the proposed new form and that the final draft would be quite similar to the pre- sent Canadian certificate of health form.

The Conference recommended certain changes in the proposed regulations for the consideration of the United Nations Food Rll'l Ag- riculture Organization. which had taken an active part in the pro- ceedings. A meeting is to be held in Washington on June 7 to pre- pare a final draft of regulations and Mr. Keenan will represent the Canada Department of Agriculture at this time.

"Man, know thyself". was com- manded by orie of the sages of old, but man has always been more interested in knowing his neighbor - not for his neighbor's good but for his own. I recall that a noted American phrenolo- gist. about the year 1880. publish- ed a book, which divided "Man" into four classes, vlz.: Sanguine, Bilious, Lymphatic, and chcleric, according to the fluid contents of their systems! A man of the Bil- ious type had an abundance of bile which was supposed to darken his visage and make him pessi- mistic. The Lymphatic man was a flabby, water-logged customer who disliked exertion of any kind, eto., etc. "Why do you study this?” I asked the young miners, and their reply - when they answer- ed honestly - was that they hop- ed to pass their examinations for some official post, where a know- ledge of mankind would be most useful.

As time went on, a different and more sensible classification came to the front. Mankind was divided by "temperaments". I re- collect two only: the Mental tom- perament, which contained all the "brainy" people. and the Mo- tive temperament, with its travel- lers, sailors, explorers and Renar- ally stirring personages.

From these two temperaments, modern psychologists have deduc- ed the terms introveri. and extre- vert. These have already been ex- plained ln this column.

Lately, another classification has appeared. Mankind is divided into three obvious tYP93- VIZ-7 Schlziod, Cyclold, and Paranoid, and each type is perfectly normal. for a drink whenever he can. If It, must be remarked at this point that few people are we per cent schizoid, Cyclold or Paranoid, though one pattern usually pre- dominates in s person's charac- ter.

Be- fore the War, the Women's In- stitutrs in England were re-print- ing such local histories as "year- books". Personally I have always appreciated the work of the Is- land Wcmen's Institutes.

PLANT FOR NAMING In reply to M. B. R... CltY- I must remark that the plant was quite dried up when it reached me, and there were only the with- ered remains of the flowers. How- ever, I soaked nnd spread some of the icnvcs. and am now pretty sure it is the Ground Ivy. Nepeta hederncoa, a first cousin of the Catnip. N. Cataria. The flower is rather tubular. grows In little clusters and is of a fine light blue color. The leaves are rounded to kidney shaped, and crenste all round. The lcafstalks are long. The plant is pubescent. creeping and perennial. It has a very char- ncterlstic bnlsamie odor: it was this that grrvc me the first hint of its identity. This plant was brought in from the Old Country where it has a wide distribution. It was used to flavor lilo at one time and WM culled Alchoof and Hove. Other names were Robin-run-the hedge, I-led-zcmnids and Haymalds, Calls- prrw. and Cnrrlson Flower. Bot- nnist Lindley, writing in 1840. says the lcuves were in great request among the poor in England as ten. In rustic medicine its uses were many. An extract, mixed with honey was a favorite remedy for ”romplnlnls of the chest". Gerardo, famous old herbalist, wroio "Boiled in mutton broth l helpeih weake rind siting bac . Others praised it for rell, ng coughs. internal ulcers, and skin diseases. Modern writers Write it do - "tonic and aromatic." That
